It's Tuesday, which means the open mic at the Flat Iron - my open mic - is happening. Oh, joy!

Last night rehearsal was canceled. I used the time to do laundry, eat, and sleep.

My new sleep mode is in two parts: Fall asleep watching TV on my recliner, wake up about four in the morning having to pee, then go to bed for a couple of hours more.

Of course, this isn't good, but I question whether it is worse than falling asleep in bed.

Anyway, not having to wake up to an alarm, especially after a gig the night before, gives me something to look forward to after my time working at the VA is over (seven weeks and 3 days. 35 working days. But who's counting?).

I celebrated my tiredness with a lunch at Core with some friends. Good food and good conversation.

The open mic was a blast! Lots of high points, a new low in drummers, and a stone gas! It is such a warm and friendly evening. I like the Flat Iron Grill, where it is held, a lot - the food I've had there has been good, but the staff really makes it - they have quickly become my friends!

Tuesday's child is full of grace.

My goal to stay under 205 for the rest of the year bit the dust on the first weekend. My remaining goal, to get to my low weight of the year by year's end, is still intact. One bad weekend cannot deter me.
